alt Hacker NewsI like the app and don’t need any customization options. Downloaded it after an earlier HN discussion I think.
The workflow of typing, then selecting a file name to save at the very end makes me somewhat uncomfortable. What happens if the app or the computer crashes? Will everything be gone?
This stops me from writing for really long sessions in there. Don’t want to type for an hour only to find everything is gone.
OK, so:
- almost every keypress is saved (+ the size limit is in MBs), so there's no need to worry.
Having said that, this is really useful feedback - somehow it has never occurred to me that this is not obvious, which is silly. That's on me of course. Thanks!
I'll: - add a save shortcut (for forced save) with a visual cue (e.g. a toast saying "saved") - add better copy + another way of marking occasional save points
